All Politics is now Global

The Fourth Reich is here, via EU. Even if it crumbles, which it likely will, it will consolidate into a core and federalized United States of Europe. External threats emanating from Russia and the Middle East are too important to dismiss.

With America wanting NATO members to pay their fair share, and the likelihood of that happening being slim, European members are scrambling to create their own defense mechanism. It isn’t so much about defense, though, is it is about Germany regaining and retaining power. In the coming years you will see. How quickly depends on the amount of time it takes for a power vacuum to be formed and filled.

This is why you need to watch for events such as America pulling out of NATO and a German-led Europe taking it over, or NATO disintegrating and a German-led Europe forming its own European Army. The latter is more likely being that a new military component is already being formed.

ANGELA Merkel was expected to be presented with plans of a European nuclear defence programme today.

Angela Merkel paid a visit to the Prime Minster of Poland, where a meeting held at 2pm Polish time aimed to discuss the future of the European Union.

Later on in the day, the German leader met with President Andrzej Duda and Jarosław Kaczyński, leader of the conservative Law and Justice Party.

It is during the latter meeting, that Mr Kaczyński was to reportedly propose defence investments for “a European version of DARPA”.

The project would include a joint-investment in future defence measures, including a “nuclear umbrella” based on French nuclear armaments.

Prior to the meeting, the right-wing politician told German press he hoped for a single nuclear unit, capable of matching Russia.

He underlined Europe must be prepared for greater spending, suggesting nations put forward 10 per cent of their budgets towards this goal.

Angela Merkel’s foreign affairs spokesperson, Roderich Kiesewetter, mirrored these sentiments in regards to US involvement in European defence measures.

He issued a warning: “Europe needs to plan its own safety, in the event the Americans raise the costs of defending the continent, or decide to leave it completely”.
